Face-It

Face it parents, children will by far be the best piece of art you’ll ever make. Face all that cuteness, messiness, and early life crises, because you know you’ve been there to. You are looking at a beautiful reflection of your life’s history.

Cycle of Life

  1. Newborns represent the frailest stage in human life. They lack linguistic communication skills and proper nervous system functions. Basically they are trying to figure everything out in their new little bodies. As parents raising a new addition to the cycle of life, we re-walk the cycle from the outside. Basically, we are figuring the newborn out to.

  2. Once born, babies go from laying to sitting to crawling and eventually walking. Then Boom! You have a tot! Experiencing overbearing emotions and experiences that start those early life crises. Basically they are figuring out the gravity of reality on this planet. As parents raising this upgraded baby form is making us rethink the gravity of reality on this planet.

  3. Next you have the grace period of early childhood. A child brought up in a semi-stable environment with good parenting will have a decent routine around life crises. Basically they are developing habits of success. As parents we are forced to be in a routine to have a chance against life’s crises. Basically we are preparing to handle life crises.

  4. The proud years of teenage-hood bring back the overbearing emotions and the gravity of reality starts to effect different places. Basically they are figuring themselves and this world out. As parents the gravity of reality starts effecting us in different places too. While at the same time figuring out the world as an adult.

  5. Early adult hood is a time of exploring professional survival skills. Basically learning potential skills to survive life’s crises, solo. Well, not always solo, young adults still have supporting parents. Parents also often navigate parenthood solo, with a partner, or have grandparent reinforcements.

Conclusion

Parents, the reality is you have to face the challenges of parenthood together. Just you and your kids. Children will shed light on parts of yourself you never knew. Like the determination to save your child from an unexpected fall, or motivation to step out your comfort job for better financial opportunities. Parenting is a responsibility like no other, face-it.
